More Bountiful Garden Pics

My garden which was just shoved in and amongst the shrubs and plants

is slowly drawing to its end - or my dad's forcing it to end. He yanked the zuc plant after the first zuc's were harvested. The tomato plants are still alive and the cuc's are gone too. We had regular cuc's and pickling cuc's which we forgot about and look like they're on steroids as well

. The funky bumpy lil pointy green things in the bucket are called bittermelon - I think its an asian veggie. Its VERY bitter *blech* And then theres this huge long shaped melon which is about 44" long - its L shaped and fit around my sink LOL. I think we just grow our veggies with too much love however the eggplant plant must've felt neglected - we only got 2 from it this year

Hope you enjoy the pics ladies! I cant wait to garden next year!

with the help of my husband I have a bountiful garden this year hard to keep up with but love it grew broccoli for the first time . It has been a real challenge to keep it alive we have had no rain for months very very bad hot weather in ohio but we water often the grass is dead to much to water and flower beds look like hell but can't eat them so we just watered mostly the garden. Love it.
